RNGRAVINGS FROM THE WORKS OF THE LATE G. S. NEWTON, R.A. Hodgson, London, 1836. The present Part, which is the first of a Series, to be continued at intervals, consists of three engravings, not one of which but is executed in the first style of art. " The Forsaken," by Phillips, is particularly well engraved ; the lights and shades of the countenance are Pourtrayed with considerable skill and delicay, and the black clustering ringlets have all that softness and glos siness about them which we admire so much in nature. The attitude, too, of the figure, which is that of a Young girl, fair, pale, and melancholy--having, no doubt, just heard that her heartless, worldly-minded sweetheart, after a month's billing and cooing, has split upon settlements and declared off—the attitude, we say, of this poor, forsaken young spinster, is easy and un forced, and, at the same time, full of witchery. " A Girl at her Studies " is a good practical quiz on pe dantry. Her governess has, no doubt, set her to peruse, as a task, some abstruse volume on metaphysics or moral Philosophy, and the consequence is that she has fallen fast asleep over it, and is evidently enjoying a slumber as profound as that which follows an attentive perusal of one of Colonel Sibthorp's speeches in the House of Commons. The engraving is highly finished, as is also the remaining one, entitled A Girl at her Devotions." WINDSOR-SUNDAY. The following distinguished personages arrived at the Castle y e sterday evening :—Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess o f Kent and the Princess Victoria, attended by the Lady Kathe 1111e Jenkinson and Baroness Lelizen, the Dukes of Dorset and ` ll. .gY l l, the Earls and Countesses of Brownlow and Win- Den ln sea,the Dean of Hereford, the Earl and Countess of h igh, Lord and Lady Wharncliffe, and Sir Henry and Wheatley.

LIVERPOOL-SATURDAY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. observe in your general list of the prices of Shares, the Grand Junction Liverpool and Birmingham have been for some months quoted at 1071. per share, 401. paid. The amount paid is now 601. per share, and I have been offered this day 150/. per share for what I hold, and 132/. for London and Birmingham. The former line is to be opened throughout early next year, and although, by the original estimates, one of the cheapest lines in England (not costing per mile one-fifth of the cost of the Liverpool and Manchester, now selling at 1851. premium), the under taking will be completed for even less than the estimates. The Grand Junction are now worth, to hold, 200/. pre mium ; and the Birmingham, to hold for 5 years, consi derably more. Your daily report of the Share Market is looked to with great interest and confidence here, and it will be well worth your while to look out fur the best and earliest in formation on matters connected with it. I am, Sir, yours, most obediently, A RAILWAY PROPRIETOR. [Wherever any errors occur in the report, it is no fault of ours, for we invariably quote the prices from the autho rised list ; but which, it appears, is not always so correct as could be wished. This no doubt arises from the varia tion which takes place in the prices since the last report is sent up. We shall be happy at all times to make any cor rections that may be sent to us.—En. Sun.] TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—lrresponsibility in the law•makers and governors of a State has long been theoretically demonstrated to be incompatible with good government and the happiness of the people. The proofs of experience which practical men require, before conceding the truth of a theory, are now added overwhelmingly. The conduct of the irresponsible part of our Legislature, the House of Peers, has, during the present session, given " confirmation strong as holy writ."_ But to produce full conviction in the minds of the people of Great Britain that both branches of the Legislature, the Lords as well as the Commons, should be responsible to the people from whom their powers and privileges ema nate, it is necessary, that the parliamentary conduct of the Lords should be clearly and forcibly pointed out to them ; the people will then see the absoluse necessity of an imme diate Reform of the House of Lords, and seeing it, they will will it, and willing it, it will be done,—for what can resist the calm and firm expression of the people's will As well may the House of Peers attempt to stem the ocean tide ! I would suggest, Sir, that a most effectual means, at the present moment, would be the publishing, in a cheap form, a brief sketch of the Lords' misdeeds during the present Session, in the shape of a catalogue of the Bills of Reform which they have either rejected in tote, or mutilated in detail ; with a short and clear description annexed of the nature and tendency of the original Bills, and of the Lords' amendments. Such a pamphlet, sold at a low price, and extensively made known by the liberal press, would obtain an almost universal circulation, and do more than folios of arguments to determine the people of Great Britain to effect an im mediate and real Reform of the House of Lords, by affix ing to the constitution of that legislative body the principle of responsibility. I ask your powerful aid to call upon some competent friend of the people to do this work immediately. Devizes, Aug. 19, 1836. IGNOTUS. THEATRICAL MISCELLANY. VICTORIA 'NBA TRR.—A new piece is to be produced at this house to-night, dramatised from the nautical novel of Bailin the Reefer. We hear that the piece is full of dramatic interest, and that the proprietor has spared no expense in giving it all the advantages of stage decorations, and of the best dramatic talent which the metropolis affords. Mr. and Mrs. Yates are at Brighton, where they have pro duced the Jewess, &c., with very indifferent success. Mr. Forrest, the American tragedian, is to open at Drury in an Indian drama, as the hero of which he has attained great celebrity in New York. The Bedouin Arabs arc engaged at the Surrey Theatre for five weeks, at the sum of 100 guineas per week. Mr. Rice, the American comedian, has gone to Paris, but is re-engaged at the Surrey, where he re-appears in about a fortnight, as a black cupid. Mr. Bunn, amid other arrangements, is endeavouring to en gage his band by the year, without specifying for which theatre their services are designed. A new drama, under the title of The Lakes of Killarney, is in rehearsal at the Queen's Theatre—Mrs. Waylett enacts the heroine. Ole Bull, Curioni, Bochsa, and Miss Bruce, have been making a tour, which has not proved productive. At South. ampton they did not obtain their expenses. They advertise for Tuesday next at Exeter. Lablache, Ivanoff, and Mori, are said to be in the same city with a grand musical entertain ment on Thursday. It would have been more profitable if these professors had chosen different routes. A meeting of certain members of the dramatic profession took place on Friday last, for the purpose of putting an end to the present system of dramatic agency. Mr. Eugene Macarthy urged that union was the watchword in every profession but that most unfortunate one, the stage. A committee was ap pointed, and subscriptions received. Messrs. Hamilton, Bur ton, and other provincial actors, addressed the meeting, which merged into a proposal to create an office where provincial managers might ascertain what actors were unemployed, and vice versa. John Reeve, the comic actor, although he is now feasting upon the " golden opinions" of the play.going people of Ame rica, has been prevailed upon by his friend Yates, the joint proprietor of the Adelphi Theatre, where Reeve gained all his laurels, to return to England, where is expected to arrive by the period the Adelphi Theatre usually commences. It is said that his engagement is at the rate of 401. a week. Mr. John Kemble, eldest son of Mr. Charles Kemble, has returned to England a Benedich, having married the accom plished daughter of an eminent German professor. Mr. Kemble is said to have undertaken the editorial superintendence of a quarterly journal, which advocates liberal opinions. QUEEN'S THEATRE.—A new musical fairy romance, in two acts, is in preparation at this house, of which report speaks highly. The piece has been written expressly for Mrs. Way lett, to afford her the opportunity of introducing a new set of melodies, chiefly from the Irish. The piece is from the pen of the author of ./s• She a Woman? the music is by a Mr. Lee. The theatre was honoured during the last week by the presence of the following distinguished personages :—His Serene Highness the Duke of Brunswick, the Marquis of Hertford; Lords Powerscourt, Templetown, Glentworth ; Dowager Countess of Winterton, Lady Louisa Tumour, lion. Mrs. Marshall, 11. m. Mrs. Leicester Stanhope, Hon. Cal. L. Stanhope, Hon. E. Butler, lion. Hays Turner, lion. Henry Upton, Mrs. Moreton Dyer, Mrs. Thelburn, Sir Robert Wil son, Col.

F a rOM the French Papers of Friday.) It is affirmed that the troops who have compelled the Queen to accept the Constitution amounted not to more thaa 500 men. They were the troops of her guard upon Aim she had thought she might depend more than upon the line. We arc informed from Bayonne, by an extraordinary channel, that General Espartero has completely beaten Gomez in the Val de Buron (Asturias). General Soria, whose victory we yesterday announced, has caused the Cor stitution to be proclaimed by his troops ; his example will probably be followed by the whole northern army. The Constitution has also been proclaimed at Santander. Some journals have announced that the Spanish question had given rise in the Cabinet to a crisis sufficiently intense to oblige the majority of its members to tender their re signation. The statement is correct. We give a com plete history of the crisis to which the news of the pro clamation of the Constitution of 1812 has come and put an end to. Everybody knows that even before the formation of the Ministry of the 22d of February, M. Thiers had always shown himself a warm partisan of an intervention. His opinion had found more support in the present Cal inet, especially from M. Passy. Harrassed by the interested suggestions of Northern diplomacy, M. Thiers had openly declared that in no case France could come to a compro mise with Don Carlos, and that a counter-revolution must be prevented at any cost, the cause of the Queen being ours. The events of Malaga and Sarragossa, and organization of the Juntas, came, and afforded new arguments to the opponents to an intervention. M. Thiers, in spite of him self, was from that moment content to demand an exten sive and efficient co-operation. He urged that the best and only means of combatting the Constitution of 1812, was to combat Don Carlos—that France could not interfere in the internal quarrels of the Spaniards about this or that form of government—and that the overthrow of the Carlists would be the safest means of' pacifying Spain, and uniting all parties round the Throne of Isabella. To effect this object M. Thiers proposed the following means of execu tion :—That which has hitherto been wanting to the mili tary operations in Biscay has been an ensemble, and a su preme, political, and military direction. Now, a corps of 10,000 Frenchmen, consisting of 6,000 picked men, drawn from our regiments, and of the 4,000 brave fellows remain ing in the foreign legion, was to form the nucleus of the new army, and the pivot of its operations. A distinguished Lieutenant-General was to command that corps, to which the 6,000 men of the English Legion were to be united, General Evans having with most honourable modesty de manded to put his men under the command of a French General ; 4,000 Portuguese and 10,000 Spaniards ware to be added to the corps,'makino- altogether 30,000 me n . A plan of campaign, contrived b by Marshal Maison, General Harispe, and several other Generals, would have ensured a success for which all our veteran officers answered. The remainder of the Spanish army was to occupy the Ebro as a reserve, and might have devoted a part of its force to guarding the Queen. Thus was the question put and progressing when diffi culties arose about the appointment of a Lieutenant-General. Last Monday, M. Thiers had expressed his opinion to the King, and warmly maintained the necessity of the scheme. On Tuesday Ministers assembled, when opinions were clearly delivered ; the a dv oca t es f or an i ntervent i on were MM. Thiers, Passy, and Sauzet ; the two Marshals son and Duperre, M. d'Argout, who before his departure had given his opinion, and confirmed it since in his letters. Against the measure were MM. Pelet, who urged the danger of engaging in a war, the issue of which nobody could foresee, and M. de Montalivet. The opinions proving irreconcilable, M. Thiers first gave in his resignation, and was followed by his five colleagues. The resignations were conveyed by M. Montalivet, who did his utmost to prevent the schism. On Wednesday fresh efforts were made to change M. Thiers' resolution, but he persisted, and, after a long conference, without a result, Ministers were assembled at St. James's, when the de spatch arrived announcing the acceptance of the Constitu tion by the Queen. It put an end to a division upon a question which ceased to be the order of the day. In the present state of things, the F renc h Mi n i stry , faithful to their system of non-interference in the internal quarrels of the Peninsula, have nothing more to do than to await events. The French troops who are in Spain are to con tinue the warfare against Don Carlos ; but the auxiliary corps, which is organizing at Pau, will probably wait to cross the frontier until events enlighten us as to the real situation of the Queen, who, we trust is neither insulted nor a captive in her palace at St. Ildefonso.—lmpartial. If we are to believe persons who are generally well-in formed, the Government yesterday received intelligence that Catalonia is in a state of universal insurrection. It ex pected reports by the ship of war sent to Barcelona, and whose delay in returning is taken as a bad omen. It is pro bable that the rising of' the Catalonians has been impeded by the too close neighbonrhood of the land and sea forces of France, which may interfere ; and it is certain that the principle towns, both on the coast and the interior, have, for more than a fortnight, given strong proofs of their sen timents. Besides, warnings have not been wanting. Al though M. de Rayneval may have deceived himself, the French agents in the provinces see clearly, and have in cessantly written to the President of the Council, although he never sends any answer. A celebrated Spanish Gene ral observed to a French Commandant on the frontier, on the subject of the second legion, that 'it is very small and very late ; popular movements have become inevitable, and after all, Spain can never be saved, in consequence of the errors and incapacity of the men at home, and the irresolu lution of those abroad.' The partisans of Dan Carlos in France have long and loudly declared, even iu Ministerial circles, that they had nothing more to fear than that a revo lution might in the end prevent their legitimate King from entering Madrid. The following are extracts from the Phare de Bayonne, of the 16th instant ;—" General Evans arrived on the 13th at Bayonne, and set out again yesterday for Santander. Ile was accompanied by Captain Henry, commander of the Spanish steamer La Reyna Gobernadura. The mail, which left Madrid on the 9th, has been stopped at Atiza by the band of Basilic) Garcia. The first division of the army of the centre, which was under the command of Major--Ge neral Soria, has yielded to the instigations of the Arrago nese plotters, and declared itself on the 7th, at Castellote, in favour of the Constitution. General Soria refused to remain at the head of his troops, and left the command of them to Brigadier Santa Cruz, who, in his tarn, soon aban doned them to an officer named Manuel Lebrun, who did not hesitate to follow all the political directions imposed on him by a commission formed of Captain Valladares and Adjutants Pontefais and Ortega. This Manuel Lebrun has addressed to the Captain-General, Evariste San Miguel, a report on these events, dated the 10th, from Alcaniz, where the Constitution has likewise been pro claimed. An extraordinary contributicn of four millions of rials has been decreed by the insurrectionary Junta of Sarragossa. Many of the inhabitants, who refused to pay their quota, have been imprisoned in the old dungeons of the inquisition. The Constitutionalists of that town have adopted a green cockade, with the legend The Con stitution or Death.' Everybody, even women, are forced to wear it ; and any person without it in the streets is lia ble to be assaulted. One of our correspondents has pro cured for us a copy of the orders settled by a committee that met at M. Mendizabal's, on the 15th of July, which show that what was said of there being a central committee at Madrid directing all the troubles of the provinces was true. We give an exact copy : " 1. Not to excite any insurrection, in order that the Government may not be induced to make a display of its forces. 11. To act upon the masses, and to win them over by the opening of the Estamentos, to interest thc; isa tional Guard as much as possible in this undevtaking, and especially the individuals that have Weil removed from that corps. 111. To communicate with the correspondents of the provinces, in order that a cry may he raised on all sides against the Government. The means pointed out as proper for attaining this result are the follow ing t :-Ist. Ne ver t o b e i gnorant of any news received by the Gov ernment, b ut to alter it or to comment upon it, so as to rend er i t prejudicial to Ministers. Secondly.

(Prom the Vreneh Papers of Saturday.) The f°ll ° l47 ing• additional d e t a il s o f w h at t oo k place on the night of the 12th inst., at St. Ildefonso, have been received by the Government .—At eight in the evening, the regi ment of provincial militia, about 500 strong, broke into in surrection in their barrack, to the cry of " The Constitu tion for ever"—" Isabelle 11. for ever," and marched under arms to the Palace, singing "Iliego's Hymn." The soldiers of the 4th Regiment of the Guards seeing these men corn ing, joined them. All the officers,ivithomit.exception, wouV have nothing whatever to do with the revolt, and the ca valry of the Guard took no part in it. At the approach to insurgents the gates of the Palace were shut. Time Commandant-General, Count de San Roman, and the offi cers, remaining faithful, end mvoured to calm the soldiers, but were not listened to. Cries of " Death to San Ro man" were mingled with those of " Death to Quesada.' On the first intelligence of these events, M. de Rayneval, being detained at home with a heavy indisposition, M. de Bois-le-Comte, who had arrived a few days before at St. Ildefonso, and Mr. Villiers, the English Ambassador, hastened towards the Palace, but could not get admittance, since the drunken soldiery, who obstructed the approach to it, refused to let them go by. They demanded to speak with the Cone mandant or the oflieers, but were told there were not any, and that the sub-officers had taken the command. They were forced to retire at the moment when menacing words began to be heard around them.' However, the clamour a n d the voci ferations continued ; already a small door was driven in, which, however, did not lead into the interior of the Pa. lace ; they began to shake the great gate ; some musket shots were heard, and they talked of getting artillery, and massacreing all in the Palace, if the Queen did not accept the Constitution. The Regent, preserving admirable firm ness in the midst of the general alarm, ordered twelve of the rebellious soldiers to be brought into her presence. She asked them what they wanted ; they replied, " The Constitution of 1812 and liberty." A long discussion then ensued, the Queen trying to convince them that they did not understand even the nature of their demand ; and the soldiers confessing in fact they did not know much about the Constitution, but that they had been told it was excel lent—that it would ameliorate greatly their condition—that it would lower the price of salt, &c. To these declarations made in a very insolent tone, were added from time to time protests of devotion to the two Queens. An officer, mis taking, or pretending to mistake, the terms of the Constitu tion of 1812, represented to them that this Constitution called Don Carlos to the throne instead of his niece. They replied, that as for Don Carlos they would have nothing to do with him ;he was a despot. As for the two Queens, they said, it was of no consequence that the Constitution repudiated them ; the nation was determined to have them, and would know well how to support them. At two in the morning, after five hours' resistance the Queen yielded to the wishes of those who surrounded her ; nothing, however, could induce her to swear to the Constitution of 1812 ; she protested that she would not take any such step, which could only be valid in the presence of the as sembled Cortes. All that could be obtained of her was that she would sign a writing thus worded : " the Queen authorizes Gen. San Roman to let the soldiers swear to the Constitution until the meeting of the Cortes." The troops immediately returned to their barracks ; at five tranquillity was re-established ; at ten, when the courier came away, no new incident had taken place. The Palace was free : the authorities continued to discharge their f unc ti ons ; an d t h e Minister of G race an d Justice, te only one who was at St. Ildefonso, was giving his orders. The llioniteur contains a report addressed to the King by the Minister of the Interior, naming ten persons, who particularly distinguished themselves by their exertions in endeavouring to save the Cathedral of Chartres during the late fire, and recommending medals of honour to be granted to them. The report has received his Majesty's approval.. —Journal de Paris. Extract of a letter from Madrid, dated the 13th instant —" After the late measures taken by the authorities for preserving order we were far from thinking that we were approaching so near to a most serious crisis, which makes us tremble for the fate of the country. The disarmament of the National Guard was accomplished without resistance, and in the course of the 9th and 10th upwards of 2,700 muskets were delivered up to the Alcades. These arms were con veyed in carts from the several police offices to the depots appointed by General Quesada, who watched over this ope ration with peculiar care. Strong detachments of troops escorted the carts to their destination, while the populace looked calmly on without making any opposition, although they appeared armed with heavy bludgeons. The shops in the streets through which they passed were shut by way of precaution ; but the known determination of General Que sada to make signal examples, if compelled to do so, pre vented any serious disorders. Only in the evening of the 9th, according to the unhappy habits of this capital, the streets were stained with blood from acts of private vengeance in the quarters inhabited by the lowest orders of the people. It frequently happens here that crime goes hand in bond with political agitation, and assassins arc mingled in the crowds of rioters. The knowledge of this induced Ge neral Quesada to issue an order forbidding bludgeons to be carried. This order was executed with the same ease as the disarmament of the five thousand National Guards ; and on the 1 Ith not a single man was to be seen with a bludgeon in his hand. The army, faithful to its own honour, and obedient to the voice of its chiefs, had remained completely estranged from the manifestations of the ultra Liberals of Andalusia. The late success of General Ber nelle had excited the ardour of the soldiers, and spread dis couragement through the bands of Villareal. The Madrid Gazette of the 10th announced that before the end of the month 8,000 French would enter Spain. This promised reinforcement, under the orders of Colonels Lebeau, Conrad, and Jose, filled with hope the friends of the Constitution a l Throne. The negotiations with which it was supposesM. Bois le Comte was charged, and time assuranee s he was believed to bring, produced a most favol':able impression for the Queen's cause ; and, in fir,. , the knowledge that the Minister of the Interior ',lad received an official, ac count of the election of upwards of one hundred Procu radores, two-thirds of wilom were in favour of the Mini stry, and that of ;:no fifty-two already arrived at Madrid thirty-eight would vote with the Ministry, gave a confi dence that the measures of the next Session would be favourable to the Queen and to the liberties of the people. From the presence at Madrid of more than fifty Prom radores, the number required to form a Chamber, we were looking to see this auspicious meeting of the Cortes opened on the 20th. All these brilliant prospects, how ever, have been totally (larked by an event equally un expected as it is important. A military plot, formed and ripened in secrecy, suddenly broke out last night. A part of the troops forming the garrison of La Granja proclaimed the Constitution of 1812 ; and the Queen, completely sur rounded by the rebels, who still keep her in their hands, after having forced her to take an oath to abide by that Constitution, has thus been deprived of all her rights. This transaction cannot possibly fail to excite an immense sensa tion in the capital, and be followed by a counterblow, for which the Ministry is prepared. Confident of the fidelity of the garrison of the metropolis, the Government is at all events resolved to face the storm, should it rollover Madrid. Every thing at this moment depends upon the spirit with which the garrison of Madrid is animated. The move ment at La Granja being entirely military, it s p rogress may be extended or stopp e d by time garrison at a single blow. The restraint under which the Queen has been placed must be relieved, as it has been established, by force, or else a military insurrection in Madrid must legalise that at La Granja. The Council of :Ministers has remained per manently sitting since the morning. The garrison is under arms, but closely confined to tire barracks. The artillery is prepared to fire at the first signal. Cannon are planted at every point where resistance may be apprehended. Every thing announce; that M. Isturiz is determined to defend to the last extremity the vio lated rights of the Crown. AL de 14 '..ayneval, whine state of health yesterday excited uneasiness, but who is better to-day, is with the cl eewleii at La Granja. For the last three days our commi:nication with Aragon has been intercepted. We have not received the letters sent from Paris by the m5....1 of the 6th. The constitutional movement in the pro vinV.osl is still going on, but with different chances. Cartha gene, Alicante, Lorcas, Murcia, and Valencia have pro claimed the Constitution of 1812, but at Vittoria and Logrono the attempts of the ultra-liberal party have com pletely failed. Several journals have spoken with more or less truth of what has passed within the last few days in the Council, on the occasion of the late events in Spain. It is not for us to correct their errors, and yet there arc idea of assertions which it will be useful to rectify. 1812, ea that marching into Spain against the Constitution of_ is, against any branch whatever of the Liberal party, has never been entertained. This is a statement radically . false. The ls i This is the light in which these events have been viewed. One of mho causes which has most essentially contributed to exeite the public mind in Spain has been the apprehension of seeing Don Carlos triumphant. Were the insurrection . in the real difficulty' in the affairsof Navarre put down, the people would . be less carried away by was their feelings. This Spain. Certainly this difficulty was not so insuperable as many persons imagined, since we have seen the Foreign Legion, reduced to a small number of men, cause Villa real to sustain a signal defeat. If the operations of the Spanish army had been carried on with more activity, the face of timings would have been changed. Unfortunately this has not been the case. The Governments in alliance with Spain were engaged in preparing for her effectual re sources, when new events have thrown the affairs of this country into absolute confusion. Where will she now find more soldiers or money to resist the counter-revolution ? We know not. Still, let us pause before we deliver a final judgment. The interest of France in the fate of a Queen she has acknowledged, and who represents in Spain a cause so great and noble, is not less lively than it was at first." —Journal de Par;s.

Harris 1 A Q UA TICS. Tug SILVER CtiPs.—T6 annual contest fur the two Silver Cups, given by the subscribers and the frequenters of Lyons's, took place on Saturday, but it was certainly not so pretty a match as was anticipated. There had been as many as ten gentlemen who had entered for this struggle, and in the drawing a light and heavy weight were taken together; two pair o f sculls in each boat, but three pairs only took their stations at Westminster Bridge. The absent pairs were Mr. Heyliger, Mr. Randall, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Robinson. The latter, it is said, is so unwell in training for his Margate match that he was unable to row. Mr. Coney and Mr. Smith were on the north shore station, Mr. George Williams and Mr. Galway second, and Mr. G. Lyon and Mr. Mitchel on the south shore. The berths were certainly wide enough to keep tLem clear of each other. Lyon and Mitchel took the lead, closely followed by Williams and Galway. Coney and his partner made a very bad start, but facing the beacon, off the Penitentiary, the latter pair bad rowed level with the second b3at, and made up to the first. The struggle here was grand ; but Mr. Coney and his partner had done all they were able. Mr. Williams and his partner were first through Vauxhall Bridge, and Mr. Coney and his partner dropped dead astern. The leading pair main. tained their advantage, and won by nearly two minutes. Lyon and his partner were second. THE SUBSCRIPTION SCULLERS MATCH.—The money in this match, which we detailed on Friday, has not been given up to the winner, on the ground that he infringed the articles entered into. In the first place, it was declared that the articles spe cified, if a man, either accidentally or wilfully, was fouled, they were to be started afresh. This portion of the affair being admitted, the losers contended that Byford had been fouled by a raft. This was not to be taken in so easily, as every body saw the man run right on it, and if that were to entitle him to a frest start he could with just as much reason claim it if he bad rowed against the pier of a bridge. It was next asserted that Newell had no right to row his quarter just in the line where the other wanted to go. in many of the crack wagers this has been held as fair, although it was evident to all who saw it that Newell was trying to " pick him up." The most ludicrous part of the matter is to come. One of the friends of Byford declared that if Newell had not annoyei the man so there would have been no accident, but it engaged his attention, and he did not see the raft ; so because he did not keep a look-out heis to have another chance of winning his money. The thing is not yet settled, which is the consequence of leaving it to betting watermen.

HATS ON T.—" On Thursday," writes the }fon. Member for Hull, " we had the entertainment of onr.:, nay two, Free Conferences with the Lords ; things interesting, like the flowering Aloes from time to time advertis,ed in the newspapers, principally as having appeared only once in a hundred years. The last free conference is understood to have been in 1740 ; and so free it was, that ela...er the Lords or Commons drew their swords upon the other, whereunon an order ensued, that at any future conference the Sir Charles Grandisons of the day should leave their toasting irons in another room., The first of our two conferences was consi dered a dull affair; as nothing took place but an interchange of reading lessons. But the second was enlivened by positiv e speeches, delivered sotto voce with great judgment and dis cretion by the various champions on both sides in turn, till the whole list was nearly exhausted. If ' lords arc lordliest in their wine,' it is well they come to a conference before they have well drunk ; for as it is, their ideas of good man ners arc, that they arc to plant themselves on a scat with their hats on, wh:le the 'rude and rascal Commons,' as the Church i.f England kindly expresses it in her Homilies, are to stand before them bare-headed till they sink to the ground with fa tigue. For my own part, happening to have had more exercise than ordinary in the course of the day, I sat down on the floor from pure weariness, as did several other Members ; and close beside me sat a Master in Chancery in his gown, who to di minish the burlesque had taken off his wig-, and held it in his h an d. I have been present at many conferences with semi-, barbarous chieftains : but never saw their visitors greeted with a reception so hoggish. The Tory newspapers are scandfLised because some of the Commons were so unc i vil es to put on their hats; but they forget to state, that there was bei ore t h em a line of men, no way visibly of the same flesh. an d bl ood with themselves, carefully ensconsed in hat s of t ,lie dime ns i ons of' a lord. mayor's footman's, and seated with an easy dignity like that of King Arthur in ' Tom.Thomb,, which they cer tainly would not have assume". if they had found themselves in their own pousekeeper's room. But this is the aristocrati cal part of our Constihttion ; and the King can mice any m an to the dignity of toting unhandsomely before his fellows. On, a former oceas;_on, as I informed you, the Lords lapsed into decorum. But a council has been held upon the matter, and they have determined to re-lapse since." DISCOVERY OF THE BODY OF MR. IMESON.-- On Thursday evening last the body of a man was diPeovered in a furze-brake below Cock Wood, near Starcross. The re mains had on the outer garments and a dark c).:rak ; a cane was found lying at the side, and the body arpeared to have been a long time in this situation. It will ' . ..ie in the recollec tion of our readers that about fifteen marlin ago Mr. Imeson, who had formerly seen better days, but was then keeping a tobacco and snuff' shop in thin city disappeared, and notwith standing every search was made at the time, no tidings what ever of what had become of him could be procured, and it was supposed by his family, (a wife and two children whom he left, and who bow keep the shop alluded to) that he was gone to America. On the news reaching this city that the body of a man had been found, it immediately suggested itself to some parties who were aware of the disappearance of the deceased, that it might prove to be him ; accordingly a party went down, and having examined it, became fully convinced it was the body of the unfortunate man. Mrs. 'meson has since re cognised the clothes, the cloak, his boots, and the cane which he was in the habit of using, and which he took with him when be was first missed. It is supposed that he must have repaired to the spot where he was found, and taken laudanum, it having been traced at the time that he had purchased some a few hours only before leaving Exeter. From the length of time the . body had been exposed it was utterly impossible to recognise a single feature, it having become a complete ske leton, and presenting, as may be imagined, a wort deplorable spectacle. An inquest was held at Starcross an Saturday, on the body, and a verdict found in accordance with the circum stances above stated. The remains of •trie unfortunate man were buried at Starcross on Saturday..— Western Luminary, It is our melancholy task t', announce, on the 3rd of July, at Alexandria, the; death of Galloway Bey, univer sally respected, second ;on of Alexander Galloway, Esq., of London. gies n te ser This your., man devoted hi s great ta l ents and ener of the Pael l a o f E gypt , as hi s ch i ef engi neer, i for k the Ir vice, .st twelve years, and as a reward for these ser vices, two years ago, he received the above distinction, which, when viewed as conferred on a Frank, and so young a man, was considered a high mark of esteem, which he so richly de served, not only for his professional talents, but for his ex treme kindness, generosity, and urbanity of character. He only left England in February last, for the purpose of . ~ ..arr)ing into effect the gigantic work of directing the execution of the railroad from Cairo to Suez, for which he came to this coun try to make all the arrangements, on behalf of the Pacha, with his father and brothers. It is stated that his decease was caused by a liver complaint occasioned by the climate, which, upon a post mortem examination, was fully confirmed. We feel that we and the public owe a debt of gratitude to the me mory of snob men as Galloway Bey, who advance the science a: - .Li enlightened views of England in such countries as Egypt was ; and we are sure his family must feel some consolation in knowing that he had rendered such services to so many of his fellow creatures. His remains were temporarily interred at Alexandria, and the whole respectable population of that city may be said to have attended to pay their last tribute of regard. The Pacha, and his minister. Beyhas Bey, in their coodolence to the family, have expressed that the Bey's services for their country could never be forgotten by them. We are happy to learn that the railroad will sill be carried into effect, and that the executing of it will. how devolve upon the Bey's brothers, two of whoal.are in Alexandria. The Bey's illness has beers the cause why this work has not as yet been commenced ; but we understand that all the arrangements are now made for enabling the brothers, with other assistance, to carry it on with full effect.

It was entered by Mr. John Tucker, of No. 40, Basing-- hall-street, London, attorney, who appeared for the plaintiffs; and the Solicitor-General pleaded for him. Advocate God fray objected to the document produced' being valid in law in this Island, and observed, that on attestation of a judgment could not be recognisefl here ; but the Court decided, that the action being stned by the Clerk of the Treasury, the de fendants must - Answer. The defendants' Advocate next asked that Mr. Tucker's power of Attorney be produced ; but the Court overruled this second plea, and affirmed the judgment of tln Court of Common Pleas, and ordered the defendant to find bait. To this an appeal was lodged and granted. The defendants preferred going to prison rather than give security. g a la n r d id, w a e re si a lo rn n e c [This is a very important case, because it fairly proves that persons being condemned by a nable before the Royal Court ofthislsland; d tribunaln E n be very sorry if Jersey were to be made a refuge for disorderly and dishonest persons. —Jersey Argus.] TIIE NEV STEAM-BOAT " NOVELTY. h e . recent successful experiment of driving this boat, of the largest class, with anthracite coal, against the tide and a strong cur rent from heavy rains, at the rate of 16 miles in the bout, has caused much remark in cur city, as an astonishing fact of great importance on the subject cf fuel, whi c h may lead to revolu tions in steam navigation.

In the trips to Albany for one season the difference in cost between wood and anthracite for the Novelty it is ascer tained would be 19,000 dollars in favour of coal. The success ful navigation of the Atlantic from America to Europe is made certain. Among the other great advantages would be the vast saving of human life, as it is believed the steady intense radiated beat of anthracite will be in some degree a security against those sudden accumulations which arise from the inflammable blaze of pine -wood. There is also an entire freedom from the annoyance of smoke, and the danger of fire from showers of sparks. 'Wood is now selling at the Hudson at five or six dollars a cord. The cost, in fact, of pine-wood is about double. that of anthracite. The passage and freight, therefore, must soon be reduced to half the present rates. The Novelty is re markable for the ease with which she glides through the w ater, the motion being without any jarring. —New York Evening Star. to a gentleman of 'Devizes, r on A passingeyhound belonging ti the road near Potterne a few days since, ti e i ng ap pa re ntly frightened at the sight of three fox hounds which. came by, started off at full speed.
